A review by readwithamey_
Elysian Fields by Twila Gingerich

4.0

This was a beautiful, heartbreaking and thought provoking story. I found the writing incredibly beautiful and poetic, while discussing some tough themes and topics. The way mental health was portrayed throughout the book was incredible and as someone with my own mental health struggles I felt validated reading this, and I felt it helped me connect more with Imogen having some understanding of her struggles. 

Although this is a short read, it was certainly packed with alot of emotion. I don’t think there are many other words I can use to do this book justice. I would recommend checking the trigger warnings as it does cover Anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, sexual assault.

Overall this was a heartbreakingly powerful and raw read, I highly recommend people pick this book up and give it a read!
